Lintons Lane Shock
19 Jun 2008
It was revealed at the June Local Committee that the student flats on the old Lintons Lane School site may not be built after all. It seems that the developer is negotiating with Surrey County Council to move the youth centre, either elsewhere on the site or off the site altogether. It is understood that the aim is to build retirement flats.
This follows on earlier news that the youth centre had been deprived of heating. County Councillor Colin Taylor pointed out that retaining this important Youth facility is included in the current Local Plan and expressed the hope that it will also be protected in the new one.
